We've been given the greatest gift,
The most precious, wonderful promise ever made.
It's about the resurrection.
This truth will never fade.
His gift is for all eternity,
Not just a moment in time.
He's given us a mind-boggling gift.

Released from the burden of our sin,
The veil was torn to free.
A promise delivered as the prophecies told.
The ancient ones could see.
Nothing can separate,
No man-made intervention.
We are saved from our mortal sin
By the power of the resurrection.
He came and walked with us
With twelve friends he taught and prayed.
Three years of dedicated ministry,
In His blood our debt is paid.
Amen
